               DUBAI, 6th May, 2025 (WAM) -- On the opening day of Airport Show 2025, Dubai Aviation Engineering Projects announced
               award of a formal contract to Smiths Detection to deploy advanced checkpoint screening technologies across all terminals
               International Airport (DXB).

               The multi-year contract covers the installation of HI-SCAN 6040 CTiX Model-S computed tomography scanners in Terminal
               and 3, aiming to enhance security, operational efficiency, and passenger flow.

               These cutting-edge scanners offer high-resolution 3D imaging and allow passengers to keep electronics and liquids in their
               during screening, significantly improving processing time and convenience. Certified by international regulatory bodies such
               and ECAC, the systems are equipped with iCMORE automatic object recognition software, in addition to smart lane manag
               and automated tray return systems.

               This initiative aligns with Dubai's vision for a secure, seamless, and future-ready airport infrastructure, reinforcing its positio
               global leader in aviation.

               H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Civil Aviation Authority, Chairman of Dubai Airports and Cha
               and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline and Group, said, "Dubai continues to lead the world in aviation excellence by invest
               latest security screening technologies. This project strengthens passenger safety, enhances the travel experience, and rein
               Dubai's reputation as a global aviation hub."

               Khalifa Al Zaffin, Executive Chairman of Dubai Aviation City Corporation, remarked, "Selecting Smiths Detection reflects ou
               commitment to smart infrastructure integration across our airports. It is an investment in operational efficiency and the safet
               millions of travelers as we build the airports of the future."

               Suzanne Al Anani, Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Aviation Engineering Projects, added, "We are dedicated to developing
               and intelligent airport infrastructure that meets future demands. This project exemplifies our proactive approach to enabling
               seamless, and high-capacity travel through the integration of smart, advanced technologies."

               Managing Director of Smiths Detection Middle East, Tom Squier, commented, "We are honoured to collaborate with Dubai A
               Engineering Projects to help secure one of the world's busiest airports. Our advanced screening solutions will enhance dete
               efficiency and support Dubai's vision for safe and smart air travel."

               This project forms part of Dubai's broader strategy for intelligent airport transformation. As DXB continues to break records
               international passenger traffic, these upgrades ensure the airport's security and service capabilities remain ahead of global
               and expectations.
